Opal White Product Story

Opal White comes in Polished and Honed for interior walls and floors in living areas and kitchens. Slabs up to 1200 × 2800mm extend it to seamless wall cladding, seamless floors, worktops and islands, vanity tops and basins, tables and furniture, and fireplace and bath surrounds. Every size is rectified for narrow, consistent joints, in thicknesses from 6mm to 9mm, and the collection can contribute to BREEAM and LEED assessments. Opal White has moderate tonal variation (V3) that reads as natural movement rather than a printed surface.

Opal White Graphical Faces

Opal White is supplied with a number of distinct graphical faces. Below are examples of 4 of these graphical faces when supplied in 2800 x 1200 mm formats. Click on any swatch for a closer look.

  • Polished (6/9mm) — interior floors in living areas, hallways and kitchens; interior walls; large-format surfaces: seamless walls, seamless floors, worktops and islands, vanity tops and basins, tables and furniture, fireplace and bath surrounds.

Yes. Every size is rectified: the edges are cut to precise dimensions after firing, allowing narrow, consistent joints. Confirm minimum joint widths for the format with the installer and adhesive manufacturer.

How much shade variation should I allow for?

Opal White is rated V3 (moderate variation). Variation between pieces is part of the design, so dry-lay from several boxes and agree the blend with the client before fixing. For large or phased projects, order the full quantity from a single production batch.

  • 6mm — 14.5 kg/m²
